NOTES AND GOSSIP ABOUT CON-

What has the Forty-Ninth Congress
Done. Its last Moments Scene
of Hurry and Confusion.
Special Correspondence of the Sentinel.
WASHINGTON, March 4.-Ere this
letter reaches you the Forty-Ninth
Congress will have expired, and l had
as well write its obituary few hours
in advance of its demise
Many criticisms and slurs and filings
have been leveled at it during the two
brief years of its existence, and many
attem pts have been made to show that
it has an unworthy record. But as a
matter of fact it makes a much better
showing than any recent Congress has
done, especially when it is remembered
that it was Democratic in one branch
and Republican in the other, and con-
sequently unequipped for harmonious
and rapid progress.
One reason that it was constantly
derided and reviled as a failure was
because extravagant promises were

The President is overwhelmed with
work, and remains at his desk during
a greater portion OF the night. These
are the busiest days of the year, if not
of his whole term. Congress must
adjourn at noon TO- day, and any bills
in his hands undisposed Of at that
time must fail. For the past few days
he has had more than a hundred bills
lying before him most of the time, for
as fast as he could dispose of them
Others were brought in. Many of
them require close examination, which
consumes much time.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, March 7th.-
On entering the Cafe of the Union
: League of this City, / was SO impress
ed with its magnifcence and ideal per-
lection, in every respect, that I
thought description of it could not
fail to be of interest to North Carolina,
where SO many institutions of similar
kind are being inaugurated and be-
coming popular.
The cafe is equal to the finest apart
ments OF either the Jockey Club of
Paris, the Argyle of London, or the
Union Club of New York, and he
would be a fastidious critic indeed
who would not pronounce it the per-
lection of architectural and decorative
beauty. Its plan, panels, frescoes,
chandeliers, mantel, tapestries, and
furniture, make it an apartment of
elegance and convenience.
1t is finished in handsome Canadian
| hazelwood. The wainscoting is pan
eled, polished hazelwood, with beauti
| full carvings and tracery. A deep rich
moulding of shining hazelwood runs
along the top of the walls. Between
the wainscoting and the moulding the
wall is divided into panels by pilasters
of the same wood, with neatly designed
capitals. The ceiling, which is seven
teen feet above the floor, is of rough
sand, finished, painted in soft tints.
| Near each corner of the room is a
chandelier of polished and exquisitely
wrought brass, hanging from burn
| ished spiral brass pendant. The sup
porting column is encircled by a
bracket of twelve lights, divided into
four clusters. On each wall, symmet-
rically spaced, are two brackets, a
tri-bouquet of lights in each. The gas
fixtures have no duplicates in the
world, having been made, from special
designs, for the cafe.
| The heavy, glistening mahogany
tables, and great square mahogany
chairs, with their dark green morocco
coverings, are alike suggestive of mag
nifcence and durability. Over the
oak floor are spread two India rugs,
leach 18x24 feet in size. It took six
men to carry one of these rugs into

thick, and Of the finest texture, and

The Forty Ninth has enacted law

The Emperor William In his speech
read from the throne on the opening
OF the new Reichstag Thursday says he
is grateful at the benevolent DISPOSE
tion the people have shown toward
the empire The foreign policy Of the
empire has been continually directed
toward the maintenance Of peace with
ally po sers, and especially with Ger
many's neighbors. The foreign rela-
tions Of the government are the same
rs when the last Reichstsg was opened.
Ifthe present Reichstag, without besi-
tation or division gives unanimous ex-
preston to the resolve that the nation
will put forth its full strength in full
panoply now aud at all times against
any attack upon our frontiers, such
resolution, even before carried out,
will materially strengthen the guar.
antee OF p' ace and remove the doubts
which tie late parliamentary debates
may have inspired. The emperor
feels assured that the Reichstag by it's
resolutions will give the federal gov.
ernment national policy on a safe
basis, and derives from this conviction
the confident hope that God will bless
his efforts to preserve the peace and
security Of Germany.
